Mercedes CLK LM #35 1998 24h Le Mans in 1:18 scale
This is the Mercedes CLK LM #35 1998 24h Le Mans in 1:18 scale by Ivy.
The Mercedes-Benz CLK LM #35 competed in the 1998 24 Hours of Le Mans with the driver lineup of Bernd Schneider, Mark Webber, and Christophe Bouchut. Built as a Le Mans prototype derived from the CLK GTR, it featured a 6.0L V8 engine optimized for endurance rather than outright sprint speed. What made this race unique was the car’s dominance in its class despite fierce competition from Porsche and Toyota prototypes—Mercedes secured a historic 1‑2 finish, showcasing reliability, speed, and engineering precision over the grueling 24-hour event, and cementing the CLK LM’s legacy as one of the most formidable endurance racers of the late 1990s.
This model is hand painted and polished to a beautiful finish and has a sealed body. Resin models are
exceptionally accurate of scale, shape and detail. Each model is created using a variety of production
processes, to achieve this precision. They are produced using a composite material referred to in the
industry as “resin”. Photo etched parts, die-cutting, tampo printing and waterslide decals are often used
for the most authentic replication.
